Creator Laurie Nunn confirmed that the show is ending in an official statement, and revealed it became clear that the story is nearing its swan song while scripting Season 4.
“During that process, it just started to feel very clear that the stories were coming to an end, the characters were being left in a place that I felt really good about it. I felt happy for them, and I felt like I’ve said everything that I want to say with these characters at this time.” Nunn told Tudum.
